The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we can follow these instructions: ### Step 1: Understand the given information - Total distance to be traveled = 120 km - Distance traveled in the first part = 30 km - Speed during the first part = 30 km/hr - Average speed for the entire journey = 60 km/hr ### Step 2: Calculate the total time for the journey Using the formula for average speed: \[ \text{Average Speed} = \frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Total Time}} \] We can rearrange this to find the total time: \[ \text{Total Time} = \frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Average Speed}} = \frac{120 \text{ km}}{60 \text{ km/hr}} = 2 \text{ hours} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the time taken for the first part of the journey Using the formula: \[ \text{Time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}} \] For the first part: \[ T_1 = \frac{30 \text{ km}}{30 \text{ km/hr}} = 1 \text{ hour} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the time remaining for the second part of the journey Since the total time for the journey is 2 hours and the time taken for the first part is 1 hour: \[ T_2 = \text{Total Time} - T_1 = 2 \text{ hours} - 1 \text{ hour} = 1 \text{ hour} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the speed required for the second part of the journey Using the formula for speed: \[ \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \] For the second part: \[ V_2 = \frac{90 \text{ km}}{T_2} = \frac{90 \text{ km}}{1 \text{ hour}} = 90 \text{ km/hr} \] ### Final Answer The speed required for the next 90 km distance is **90 km/hr**. ---

To solve the problem step by step, we can follow these instructions: ### Step 1: Understand the given information - Total distance to be traveled = 120 km - Distance traveled in the first part = 30 km - Speed during the first part = 30 km/hr - Average speed for the entire journey = 60 km/hr ...
